Social Work

Social workers help people deal with their relationships with others by helping them
solve their personal, family, and/or community problems. Social workers also help
people grow and develop by learning to cope with or shape the social and environmental
forces affecting daily life. Social work offers the chance to work with and for all
kinds of people— regardless of wealth, race, or age—in all kinds of settings. Social
workers practice in a variety of settings including hospitals, schools, mental health
clinics, psychiatric hospitals, and public agencies. Please note that some careers
below will require further education.
